Notes

1. Following a fire at Coldwell Street, the congregation moved to Holly Hill until the present building (Felling Methodist Church) was opened. Holly Hill was demolished due to dry rot and to help pay for the new church building. The plaque was moved to Coldwell Street in 1980.

2. Thomas Tait cannot be identified in CWGC entries without more information.
